* Autopilot for Windows XP: Breakthrough Automatic Performance Tuner
*
Running many applications at the same time? Is your video getting
jerky? Bothered by annoying skips of your fave tunes? Is your video
or audio editing bogging XP down? Is your new WinXP machine simply
getting slower? AutoPilotR is a Breakthrough Automatic WinXP
Performance Tuner! It was originally developed to tune multiprocessor
supercomputers, but is now available for WinXP. This is not a 'memory
optimizer' but a real world performance tuner. We have seen a busy
machine's performance go up by as much as 40 percent. (AutoPilot does
not run on Win95/98 or WinME.) The current version of AutoPilot for XP
works fine with the new WinXP Service Pack 2. Special $5.00 discount
coupon for PC World newsletters subscribers.
